Fundamentals of Woodworking

This class is designed for beginning woodworkers or those who have been away from their hobby for some time. Students will have a chance to learn about different types of joints using both hand and power tools as they make their own take-home project. The course also covers subjects such as wood technology, selecting and purchasing lumber, sharpening techniques and finishing.

TESTIMONIALS:
“The class was great. The project was appropriate for someone with little hands-on experience. Les is excellent at explaining each step in the construction process as well as the appropriate safety precautions and best techniques. The experience was what I hoped for, and even better than billed. Thanks for making educational opportunities available to rookies like me.”

“Adrian was a great instructor. Very patient with everyone in the class, clear in his instruction, and clearly an expert in his craft. I was perhaps most impressed with how he encouraged us all to be creative with our projects.”
